Pres. Barack and Michelle Obama Are Stars of All the Balls

President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle Obama went from one ball to the next last night stopping by ten events over the course of their evening. The first stop was at the first ever Neighborhood Ball where there were star-studded performances from Jay-Z to Alicia Keys to Stevie Wonder, but Beyonce belting out "At Last" for the Obama's first dance was particularly touching — you seem to agree. Michelle looked stunning in her Jason Wu gown and the couple couldn't wipe the smiles off their faces all night long. Check out Citizen for all the inauguration coverage. Kanye performed at MTV's "Be the Change" Ball where Demi and Ashton partied while waiting for an appearance from the first couple themselves. Anne Hathaway dazzled in red at the Creative Coalition Ball, so it seems her babysitting skills weren't needed for the night. From start to finish it was a pretty incredible day and celebration as we welcomed a new president, a new first family, and a hope for change.

That was such a wonderful day...I'm ecstatic that Obama is our new President. He and Michelle seem to love each other so much, and I thought their dance was great. I liked her white gown a lot too and Barack was sexy as always. Sasha & Malia were adorable in their J. Crew outfits.

Michelle looked amazing in her white gown. I actually loved it! Barack was handsome in his bow tie and though the dance wasn't spectacular I couldn't take my eyes of them. For once Beyonce singing didn't annoy me and I thought she did a wonderful job. The girls looked absolutley adorable and they were were so cute during the inauguration. I don't have words to describe how happy I am that Barack is my president....Ahhh

Wasn't the Neighborhood Ball just one of ten? So what if some celebrities wanted to come out for it? There were nine other balls that the President and his wife attended. This one is getting more coverage here because after all, this is a site about celebrities.

I just love how President Obama looks at Michelle. It's so sexy and you just see he has a genuine love for his wife. He is so nerdy-cool when he's dancing. He started doing that old dance "the bump" with someone but i don't remember who. i really enjoy this family. You can't help but smile when they do.

YOU said it, pebbles.
I think they are making a complete mockery of the governemtn and politics. Personally I dont take any of it as seriously any mroe because they have 'hollywood'-ized it so much. I think that was a huge mistake. It's an inaugeration people, not the MTV music awards or the Golden Globes. Celebs should try not being total celebs that day, and be a normal person like the rest of us and concerned only with the GOVERMENT that day

Once again stars are making it about them instead of a the new president. im so sick that these parasites were there all performing when half of our veterans couldnt even get into these parties. They are the real heros and instead beyonce and demi moore were there. what a horrific joke...

I loved Michelle's inauguration dress but I did not like the ballgown on her either. It wasn't so much the gown as that it did absolutely nothing for her. It looked so unshapely on her. I agree with those who said she could have done better.

Great day and I loved all of Michelle's outfits!!! I thought Mrs. Biden looked spectacular too in red. Beyonce was so cute and moved after singing for them, but her dress choice was poor. The front of her dress was see through, you could see her....

I thought they looked absolutely gorgeous together. I thought the choice of white made them both look very classy. Even my boyfriend couldn't stop commenting on how beautiful Michelle looked, her skin was glowing!
As for the dancing, the dress had bit of a train in the back which doesn't work so well for spinning. I bet they were pretty dang tired as well! They looked very much in love, though.

Love President Barack Obama and First Lady Michelle. Yesterday was a wonderful, exciting day, a day to bring unity to the country and not division, it was beautiful, never seen anything like it. I thought the song Beyonce sang was beautiful, I loved it. He loves his wife so much!

I would have liked the gown more if it was just plain white. No beads and embellishment.
On a different note, she and Barack don't seem to be very coordinated dancers. I would have been up there spinning and dipping. All they did was sway woodenly. Come on guys, it's not a funeral!
